On the weekend of 27–29 March 2026, I had the opportunity to attend the Chemnitz Linux Days for the third time. This year it felt like coming home, and I enjoyed every second — meeting friends, attending sessions, and talking to like-minded people. Around 3,800 visitors attended the conference over the two days.
